1965 Corvette Stingray 396

This is a beautifully restored 1965 Corvette Stingray for sale. This is a number's matching 396 big block car. The L78 option for the 396/425 HP Big Block was only an option for 1965 only and just 2,157 were produced. The 4-Speed is set up with a Hurst shifter and the correct, stock shifter is included with the sale. If you are a Corvette collector, nothing would round out a collection like this Goldwood Yellow 1965 Corvette Stingray for sale.

This Big Block Corvette was completely restored in 2002 and it has been driven approximately 2000 miles since. The interior is correct and the paint is absolutely beautiful in the correct and rare color XX Goldwood Yellow. (Only 5.41% of Corvettes sold in 1965 were Goldwood yellow.) This was a nut and bolt restoration and the attention to detail is phenomenal.

A 1965 396 Coupe in blue brought $156,200 including buyers premium last month at the 2014 Barrett Jackson auction in Scottsdale, AZ. (It was lot #1294 in case you want to look it up.) This restored Goldwood Yellow 396 Corvette is a great investment and a good buy.
